Geocache Description:

The cache is on the bridge.  The bridge is located 1/2 mile east of Cedar Vale on old US Highway 166, then 1/2 mile north on a gravel road. You need to be careful when walking on the bridge.  It is a little uneven.


The iron bridge was built in the late 1890's. The bridge is a six panel Pratt through truss bridge.  It is pin-connected rather than riveted. The total lenth is 129.9 feet long and 16 feet wide.

The bridge is closed to traffic so you can park close and walk on it. If you are scared of heights the bridge can be a little challenging. Once on the bridge if you look west you can see the damn. The damn was built in 1913 during the drought. 

You are looking for a magnetic key holder.  Log only so bring your own pen.

Congratulations to Robfire for FTF.
